-_- asked:
We have a friend on a farm who grows strawberries throughout the summer. So we get them by the basket. What are some good recipes that we could use fresh strawberries in? (I’m thinking more about desserts, drinks, and jams.) Thanks for your ideas!

Well, if you get chocolate syrup and then drizzle the strawberries with it, and freeze it for a long time, it’s yummy. Also, you should like layer strawberries and bananas and nilla wafers and whipped cream, ITS REAAAALLLLYYY GOOD!
